In my experience, businesses have a lot of weirdness and I assume that holds true for the government. I knew a guy who got forced into retirement as a programmer, and then suddenly lots of things started to break in seemingly unrelated systems. They had to bring him back (at much higher wages) to get the wheels back on the wagon.

Just one example. I have many more. I don’t think replacing people is all that straightforward.

Yep, just look at the RNC, being forced to hire back 60 staffers they fired after the Trump takeover.

I'm shocked they weren't able to just canvas a Trump rally and hire 60 Trump cultists who were also competent at accounting and administration. /s

Agreed, but you’re assuming they haven’t already infiltrated these institutions already…:)
